    Doing a P/S conversion on the Commando and can pick up mounting brackets from a 1965 Buick 300. Do they work on 225s?

    RATTYFLATTY I think you need a little more throttle

    I believe the do but I haven't used them myself so I can't verify 100%.

    Do you need everything from the front of the engine to make it work?

    No but I took what I could get from the junk yard.About the same price. Those old buicks are getting scarce.

    I know of at least 3 variations in pulleys ( water pump, crank and ps pump). Vote for grabbing everything.

    Also make sure of the engine size of the Buick. The 400-455 have similar looking brackets but they won't work.
